[QUOTE="LittleGuy, post: 541687, member: 44360"] One factor that might change though is the Tier Two sides are supposed to get more favourable schedules this time around, the Tier Two sides results were much closer in games 1 and 2 than they were in 3 and 4. Scotland were very nearly upset by Romania and Georgia last time around, the minnows lack of depth was exaggerated as well, since the schedules were the exact opposite of what they should be if we want exciting RWC's. While I do think Wales will get things turned around from this current poor stretch I'm not as confident about Scotland there are some serious structural problems there, and the only plan seems to be "bring in project players". Losing Robinson is a blow, I think he was a key part in some of the scalps they've taken in the last few years. [/QUOTE]
